I sat there last night wondering if I was going to get to see another generation grow.  Then it struck me.  Why yes there is a possibility because I might have the opportunity to live longer for I am no longer a smoker.    

 

Just go anyway... find out a school that is having a chrissy concert and score two tickets, make you son take you as your date... and spend the whole time saying how great it will be when its his little one then pick some random kid, being a tree or a rock and pretend that's your treasure.... no maybe not he might commit you... you never know he might get someone preggas just to stop the nagging.

G’day 

Let the alchemy begin.....

^^ Loving the good stuff with the Jelly... no coles brand in the Cbdave house... mmmmm yummy..... you do know I am so tryin' this trifle recipe...

G’day 

 Next layer, and yes it really needs the whipped cream in the double custard. Trust me it makes the difference ( don’t tell mrs C)

UM.... you don't make your own custard?????..... wait a sec... no stove top in 30C+.... I'm liking this recipe more and more... so @Cbdave... do you whip the cream then fold it through the custard OR do you combine them and whip together... I even have this container at home... its what I fill with sausage rolls when I make them.

Gday jo

Whip the cream and fold it through. It’s store bought custard cause it’s a cold dish. If it’s a hot dish I really like a proper egg custard made from scratch.

Next layer the mango jelly and mango pulp. A bit low tide but I’m only seeing what I need. I’ve got 2 more jelly’s and heaps of fruit.

Looks like enough for an army.  Wish I was close enough for a taste.  We really need a requirement that all recipes are posted with pictures.  I love trying new recipes.

Drooling here....just sayin !!!!

G’day 

Bump this One forward....

Ive still got that special gift that I gave myself..... giving up the smokes.

No more sneaking off to have the hourly burner away from the crowd. Get to enjoy Christmas proper. Never realised it as much then but I do now. Smoking pretty greedy. You spend your time feeding the habit not the family.

Breaks into a great day. Sigh ....I love my freedom. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.

Let me be the first.

Merry Christmas all

Chris
